Mick Jagger by Peter Strongwater, 1981 for Interview Magazine. A unique piece, acquired by the current owner directly from the artist. Private collection UK.
Initials and date inscribed on the negative, visible on the contact sheet, in the bottom left hand corner.
In 1981, photographer Peter Strongwater captured a series of iconic black-and-white portraits of Mick Jagger. This sheet records a sequence of transitional expressions, capturing the subject between posed and spontaneous moments. The photographer’s numbering system remains visible on the negative strip, reinforcing its status as an authentic studio document rather than a later reproduction.
The sheet functions simultaneously as portraiture and process artifact — revealing how the final image emerged from a continuum of exposures.
